Well, gonna be straightforward: when you lay down near the perk it gives you +20 points instead of +25, even tho it's supposed to give you 25. Question: why does this happen in WaW scoring and how to make it score with numbers ending also on 5 and not just 0?

Because somewhere in the ownerdraw score handling it rounds down in tenths rather than updating based on what the value set is.

Can't be fixed only by modifying the games internals.

But I've seen on some maps it's fixed. Are they using different scoring system?

Those are done through custom scripting i.e. through GSC HUD and using the players.score value or through menu and using a DVAR to have the score update

You might as well change the values in dlc3_code.gsc if it's bothering you, there's no real reason to make an entire script just to get those extra 5 points other than just 'cause. Look for the check_for_change() function and change this line:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

player maps\_zombiemode_score::add_to_player_score( 25 );

and change 25 to a multiple of ten, like 20.

You might be able to "fix" it by modifying the add_to_player_score function in the _zombiemode_score.gsc. This fuction does not round up like the default player_add_points function when shooting zombies.

Adding this line:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

cost = round_up_to_ten( cost ) * level.zombie_vars["zombie_point_scalar"];

to the add_to_player_score function may "fix" it. Something like this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

add_to_player_score( cost )
{
	if( level.intermission )
	{
		return;
	}
	cost = round_up_to_ten( cost ) * level.zombie_vars["zombie_point_scalar"];//if you want double points to affect it
	//cost = round_up_to_ten( cost );//if you don't want double points to affect it
	self.score += cost;
 

	// also set the score onscreen
	self set_player_score_hud(); 
}

I haven't tried it, just a thought.

the problem is the hud display will still round it down dont forget

so even if you have 955 points, itll "say" 950

Why would it round it down if you're adding dividends of 10.

How? The number is updated before the score is updated. The player will never receive 5 points. You could do the same to the minus too.

Try der riese and see for yourself

This is why ppl constantly say "I had 950 points and the box wouldn't work"

Coz they actually had 945

Unless you mean it won't "with your fix" in which case yea it will not happen

I think we r misunderstanding each other

I'm talking about what happens "in the stock script" - was more a explanation to the OP

With your fix it'll be fine
